Gab1 and the MBD of Gab1 form a complex with FRS2α, Shc, or Shp2 in
cells expressing activated FGF receptor. 293 cells were transfected
with expression vectors for kinase-inactive FGFR1 (KD) mutant, wt
FGFR1, and FRS2α, Shc, or Shp2 (A–C)
as indicated. Cell lysates were incubated with immobilized GST fusion
proteins of full-length Gab1 (G) or the MBD of Gab1 (M). GST alone was
used as a control (C). Bound proteins were eluted and
analyzed by SDS–PAGE and immunoblotting with FRS2, Grb2, Shc, Shp2
antibodies (A–C). (D)
Quiescent PC12 cells were unstimulated or stimulated with FGF1 and
heparin (100 ng/ml and 5 μg/ml, respectively) or EGF (50 ng/ml)
for 10 min. The lysates were immunoprecipitated with anti-Gab1
antibodies, resolved by SDS–PAGE, and followed by immunoblotting with
anti-pTyr, Gab1, Grb2, FRS2, or Shp2 antibodies.
